This is just an attempt to let you know what happened at the Big Six track meet at Ames last week end. Many people have been asking why Kansas did not do better. Others are having been rated so high. I'll try to write this so that you can answer your own questions.
In the first place, the injury jinx, which has played such an important part in the life of the track team this year, came out of hiding again and attacked the Kawans. This is not an excuse but just the truth.
It first struck on Capt. Lyle Foy, star dashman, when he was running his qualifying heat of the 220-yard dash. Foy placed second although he slightly repulled the leg muscle that was missing from his knee meets this year. He said little about it but when he practiced, he favored his injured limb.
Then in the finals, when he was running second behind Toribio, Oklahoma, in the 100-yard dash, the leg gave out on Foy and he finished in fourth place. The Kansas captain tried to run the 220-yard dash finals but had to quit after 40 yards because of the bad muscle.
Hurdlers Glenn Foy and Paul Basoner had bad luck in their events. Foy was running third in his heat in the low hurdles when Dick Hotchkiss, Kansas State hurdler, fell over his hurdle and knocked the barrier into the path of the Kan-den hurdle that Hatchkiss had kicked and fell to the cinders along with the Kansas State boy.
Other happenings to the Kansas runners were varied. Chet Cox was boxed in on the quarter-mile run and did not get out until he was 25 yards from the finish line; Bill Greene could not see the tape and lunged 10-yards too soon at the finish of both sprints; Darrell Mathes favored his injured knee in the sprints; Chelf Friedland fouled three times in the discus throw and stood still on his fourth attempt; Bevern and Lawrence ust didn't vault as Coach Hill Bargiss had expected.
Masoner was running second in his heat of the lows and when he tripped over the last barrier and rolled along the ground. This was his first touch of bad luck. But after trainer Dean Neamith had picked all the cinders out of the Kansas back, the hurdler came back the following afternoon to run his finals in the 120-yard high hurdles. Mase was in second place behind Hotkisski of Kansas State, when he tripped over the sixth barrier, thus putting himself clear out of the running.
Kansas wasn't the only team that had bad luck. Before the meet ever started, Paul Brown, Kansas State quarter-miler, was going into his hotel and a bunch of Nebraska boys were playing around up above and knocked a screen down on Brown's head. It knocked the Kansas State boy out and made a deep gash in his head. He was taken to the hospital and kept there until the team left for home.
Then there was W. T. Howell, Oklahoma two-miler, who was running right behind Ray Harris, Kansas distance ace, in the two-mile run. Just as Harris had passed him, they ran by the pole vault pit and a Nebraska vaulter jumped, the cross-bar flew off, striking young Howell on the forehead and knocking him out. Besides putting him clear out of the race, it put a nice gash in his head.
Now that all the excuses are down on paper, let's just forget all about them because when we read the summaries of the Big Six track meet, its not going to tell who fell down or who got a stomach ache but it will tell the names of the boys that won and who deserve credit for doing so.

It is hard to realize the difficulty of picking an All-Star intra mural softball team from this year's crop of players. There were a great number of very fine players competing on teams from almost every organization and it would be very difficult to decide which were the best even if I had been able to see every minute of every game.
I saw part of almost every game that was played and have asked the opinion of the impires and finally chose the members upon their performance over the regularly scheduled season of play.
Brenneisen is Captain
Captainacy of the mythical All-Stars goes to Brenneisen, Si Alpha catcher. Leo, one of the smartest players in intramurals directed the play of the Sig Alphs all through the season and
reaching the playoffs. Brennelsen, though not a slugger, is a dependable hitter and is what is known as a "money-player."
Florell At First
Lyman Corlis is named as the pitcher because he is undefeated so far this year and is always at his best in the pinches. "C" is a fast ball pitcher with good control and a deceptive change of pace. Also a good hitter, Corlis certainly deserve the position.
The versatile Loren Florlore holds down first base this year. Last year Florlore made the team at third base even though his natural position is in the outfield. One of the smoothest working first basemen, Florlore is even more dangerous at the plate. It was his home run against Hocover of the D.U.'s that really put the Sig Eps in the playoffs.
The only standout second baseman is Kovach who played for the Galloping Dominoes, Kovach, another good hitter, played well in the field and was especially adept at turning double plays.
Don Pierce, Beta Theta Pi is "the only logical choice for third base. Pierce, an experienced player who always knew what to do with the ball, had a batting average of over 500 and it was his four hits in four times up from Hoever that gave him the opportunity DU. and put them in the playoffs.
Kresie Stands Out
From several standout shortstops I have decided upon Kresie, Sigma Phi Epsilon. Kresie, a dependable steady fielder, hit clean-up for the Sig Eps and was a very potent factor in their attack. Kresie is a smart player and was the steadying influence of the fine Sig Epi infall.
The best fielding outfielder of intramurals was Howard Dunham of Pi. K.A. who gets the call at short-hit. A brilliant fielder with a fine throwing arm, Dunham is a dependable hitter.
Bowley, Galloping Dominies, is the only man who could give Dunham any serious competition in the outfield. Bowley possesses one of showing signs I have ever seen and a dangerous litter in the pinches.
In left field is Cooper, Sigma Phi Epsilon. Cooper is a very fine out-belder with a world of experience. Cooper is always tough to get out. Cooper is always tough to get out.
Probably the best hitter in intrurual softball is Bill Hoggen, who gets the call in right field. Hogben pitches for Beta Theta Pi but it too good a player and too valuable a man o leave off the All-Star team. In the six regularly scheduled games Hogen batted in fourteen runs.

Holden To Pick All-Star Team
Ready on Rooming Lists
The Daily Kansan will present its first annual all-Big Six baseball team Friday. The team this year will be picked by Clavelle Holden, the Kansan's baseball "expert."
Baseball, long a dead sport at KU, has come back into its own during the past three years. The sport has gained sufficient following on the campus this year to merit i conference all-star team.
This team will be the third in a series of all-conference team presented this year by the Kansan, Les Kappelman picked the all-star football team and Milt Mcier handled the basketball selection.
Persons having rooms to be listed must have them in the employment bureau office Saturday.
To aid him in his selection, Holden has sent out letters to all of the conference coaches requesting opinionns and batting averages.
Kappas Trounce Pi Phis 27-10 In Semi-Finals
- KKGS Meet I.W.W. for Intramural Softball Championship; Dodge Smocks Out Two Homers
By Clavelle Holden, c'40
The Kappa Kappa Gamma captured the sorority division of the womens soft ball tournament when they bested the Pi Phi 27-10 in the final played yesterday afternoon. This afternoon the Kappas will meet the L.W. team for the University championship.
The game was a combination race track and scorekeepers night marge as the Gower place gals pounded the ball with reckless abandon to win the game easily. Although the Pi Phis were clearly outclassed by the ballers, they couldn't win in the first inning and then couldn't recover from their erring ways.
The Kappas pounded over eight runs in the first and third innings to take a lead the Pi Phi never threatened. The Arrow girls had their big inning in the last of the third when they crossed the home plate five times on four hits and a "slew" of errors.
Parker who hurried for the victors did a very nice job striking out five batters. She was greatly added by expert fielding by her team mate.
Lemonine started on the mound for the losers but was replaced by Virginia Anderson who finished the game in a tie. For the P1 Phis and was not equal to

Sig Ep, D.U., S.A.E. and Beta to I-M Semi-Finals
By John Robinson, b 40
First round games in the intena-
tional playoffs were played yester-
day. The winners were played
and the winners are eligible for
the semi-final round to take place
this afternoon.
By John Robinson. b'40
Winners of the contest yesterday were Sigma Phi Epion over Sigma U, D.U. over the Nighthawks, Sig Kappa in the Knight Club, Bela over Sigma Uki.
Today's games are to be between Sig Ep and DU. and between Beta and Sig Alph.
Sig Ep 3, Sigma Nu 2
In the tightest game of the day the Sig Eps won from Sigma Nu by a 3-2 score. The losers, who had been scoredless until that time, put on a determined rally to count twice in the last half of the seventh but with the tying run on second the side was retired.
Lyman Corlis pitched his usual good game for the Eps, allowing only six hits and striking out nine batters and pitched a fine game for the losers.
Runs for the victors came in the third, sixth and seventh innings, one at a time. Timothy and Grogan led the Ep offense with two hits each. The losing attack was scattered.
D U 16 Hunks 3
Delta Upsalon turned in an over-whelping win over the Nighthawks by a 16-3 score. Taking a load with
task as she had to leave before the game was finished.
Individual honors for the game go to Ellen Irwin and Mary Beth Dodge who played an important part in the Kappa victory. Irwin played the position of catcher in a manner that brought much praise. Several times the team lost to Dodge, but they tried to steal second and third. To Miss Dodge does the title as the home run king. Dodge pounded two home runs that were really four base blows as they sailed over the heads of the opposing outfielders.

seven runs in the first and adding four more in the second the D.U.s were never pressed and won easily. OTH. Would press runs blocked?
The Nighthawks were blanked until the seventh when they scored all of their three runs.
Hoevar and Galloway, who seems to be a star in the bud, limited the losers to three hits, none coming before the sixth.
The 23-hit offense was divided over all the members of the team.
Sig Alph 16, Dunakin 2
The Sig Alphs won another one-sided game from the Dunakin Club by a score of 16-2.
Counting thirteen runs in the first three innings, the winners were able to win as they pleased.
Hall, pitching for the Alphas, struck out eleven of his opponents and kept them under control at all times. Hill was hit hard and fielding lapses by his mates contributed to the big score made by the winners.
Beta 7. Sigma Chi 2
In the fourth game of the first round, the Betas defeated Sigma Cl 7-2.
The Betas, batting first, took a three run lead in the fourth after three scoreless innings for both teams. They added one more in the fifth. The Chis came back in their half to count twice and get back in the game. However, the winners scored three more in the sixth to complete the scoring and win the game.
Weiniek led the Beta attack with three safeties out of four attempts. Bill Hogben pitched steady ball for the winners and was never in
Varsity-Frosh
Game Today
The annual varsity-freshman baseball game will be played this afternoon at 4 o'clock on the varsity diamond.
The Jayhawk varsity nine, which took two out of three games from Kansas State over the week end will be favored to defeat the yearlings, who are coached by trainer Dean Nesmith.
Bill Lewis, junior letterman, probably will start on the mound for the varsity, with Paul Newell, tall freshman, hurling for the yearlings. Newt Krosse, nice of the freshman mound player, as he is scheduled to compete in the intramural softball playoffs this afternoon.
Both teams will substitute frequently in order that as many men as possible may play. This will be the only game of the season for the freshmen.
